Art Brokerage: Charles O. Perry American Sculptor: b. 1929-2011. Charles O. Perry created large scale and monumental sculptures that celebrate and question the laws of nature. His intuitive investigation of nature's variables provides the springboard for many of Perry's concepts.

During his architectural career he had developed many sculptural models and was offered a one-man sculpture show in San Francisco. At the same time, he won the Rome Prize, a prestigious award granted by the American Academy in Rome for two years study in Italy. Prior to leaving for Rome in 1964, he had secured two major sculpture commissions.
